BC post game

Etan must have missed all the times this didnt work against good teams. Jesse’s a weapon but not a focal point

The Coach had a good night. After 2 of his second-half TO's, SU went on runs. I think a combination of calming them down and reminding them to run the damn offense. Also, the backcourt substitutions may have been the best of the season.

Speaking of backcourt--I hope Judah's late-game performance indicates he has turned the corner, or is at least on the way to turning it.

Back story?

I told the admin who walked past our courtside aisle after the game that the concessions were an absolute embarrassment and they started talking chit to me instead of being like “yeah we were unprepared for this and we’re sorry that you waited in line for half an hour twice.”

So I started snapping back and told them to enjoy stealing money from idiot season ticket holders while you lose to Maine and UNH and they just gave me the keep talking hand signal. Whatever. It was an absolute joke of an arena and the concession situation was embarrassing and if their admins want to ban me from Conte instead of admitting they are bad at their jobs then go for it. It’s a joke of an ACC facility.

 

[UpstateSM]

Are you banned?

 

[CardiacCuse]

Thomas has become annoying.

yeah arguably the reason for some of the recent losses was overfeeding jesse when he wasnt effective/able to score against better centers...

Etan does better when he doesn't talk.
And that applies to ever time he's opened his mouth the past 44+ years.

Ridiculous. Awful post.

 

[DilemaCuse]

I have not talked that much chit in years. What an embarrassment of an ACC athletic department.

I told them to just ban me from Conte Forum. It would be doing me a favor.

I saw you shake hands w an usher late in the game, what was that about?

He told me I could talk to the students behind me but I have to try not cuss and I appreciated him being cordial with me. And right after my cousin watching on tv texted me asking if I was getting tossed and I showed the usher the text and he thought it was funny haha

I can’t believe such an innocuous comment the intent of which is to praise Jesse is being twisted into some war manifesto

Jessie has been tremendous. I love Judah's hustle, Sy was really good today. Nice shooting Justin.

 

[Dave]

Ended up not mattering, but Joe's turnover that led to the immediate BC 3 late was quite awful. Literally the worst TO imaginable in that scenario.

Great team win though. We had some mojo going there when Justin was hitting shots.

Nice to see

• Mintz's assist to Jesse late
• JB give Benny a chance
• Justin bang those shots
• Brown get to some key rebounds and loose balls
• Jesse have a monster game against his friend

Joe’s nonchalance at times is irritating and harmful.

Good job on being that guy eye roll

I hope they spend as much time showing Judah the final 5 minutes of this game as they do when screwed up earlier this year.

That’s what we need from him. Winning plays…not necessarily scoring plays.

Jessie was great. His footwork is so much better when he’s within 5 feet of the hoop. It’s gets really hairy once he’s forced out further. This is on tape for all to see. FWIW….Post is a terrible defender. He’s a tripod with no vert. Jessie should have big numbers against him. But Jessie has to find a way to be effective when he’s pushed out another 3 feet.

Nice game from Taylor, but this team is missing a true scoring wing. He’s not it. Bell isn’t it. Cope isn’t it. If Adam’s comes, he’s plug n play.

I wish Brown had just a little more bounce in him. Needs to play above the rim more. Crazy good hands /deflections.

We need Joe to be good, but he makes us all insane 2-3 plays per game. He’s good, but he’s never going to be efficient. We’re getting flashbacks of him getting ripped 1-2 per game like last year.

I love Sy in spurts. But he is limited…but glad to have him.

Good to see Benny back. Even if he leaves….he’s not good enough not to get some more reps this semester. Sitting for 8 weeks would be terrible for him.

Agree. Was shocked BC tried to play Jesse straight man with no help most of the game. No one in the ACC has done this except BC and maybe that is why they are BC.

First game I thought Judah was really trying to get the ball to Jesse. We are better when he focuses on setting up others than doing his 1 man show. Very nice game for the frosh on the road.

Good stuff. Bring in Adams and convince Jesse to come back and we might be cooking a bit. Jesse, Brown, Adams, Taylor and Judah. Copeland, Bell, Hima your primary depth plus Sy if he does decide to return.

If Jesse leaves we have to get a 5 man in the portal with an offensive game who can at least split the minutes at the 5.

 

[CLMintz]

Good team win but still need to clean some things up. Momentum!

 

[Cuse99&01]

Disagree completely. I appreciate Etan’s commentary about Cuse bball as well as social issues.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

Can't complain about much we did after the under 8 TO JB called.

 

[UpstateSM]

Good job on being that guy eye roll

Thank you brother millhouse let’s have a beer sometime if you would be willing

 

[hoopsupstate]

Next game at FSU. Different kind of FSU team. They have been shooting the three very well. Athletic, but not all that physical. It should be an interesting game. Potentially, another good road win.

Benny Williams returns to his Syracuse team after taking personal time off: ‘Back to normal’

Williams was back with the Orange after taking some personal time earlier in the week.

So could have put this in Maliqs dedicated thread but will leave it here.

This kids awareness and instincts are just off the charts. Strong yet soft hands as well.

One play in particular was the tap putback he had. The ball had a ton of momentum coming off the miss and Maliq put a volleyball like tap on it to put it back in. Not sure I've ever seen that maybe more than once or twice at any level. So difficult to make that play on the fly judging the touch needed off a bang bang play.

 

[Cuse181]

Jesse had only 7 rebounds? No way. Thought he had over 10+. Even thought the announcers mentioned pretty early that he already had a double double.

Those + and - are crazy. Jesse only with a 9? MaliQ, who I like, had a better game than Jesse?

Well Jesse has to have a +9 since (I believe) no one scored when Hima was in

What? I just disagree with Etan. Is that allowed? He’s had an ongoing passive aggressive campaign against Boeheim. Everyone has their complains but Etan’s not right here
